Abstract: A method for re-configuring a network element of a transmission network to restore traffic after occurrence of a failure is proposed. Each configuration request is divided into two phases: At first a "fetch-ahead" phase and then a "consolidation". During fetch-ahead, only configuration steps essential for fast implementation of a new cross-connection are performed and security related configuration steps skipped thereby providing reduced security against process restarts. During consolidation, those previously skipped security related configuration steps are then executed and the changes made persistent. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method for site-specific in-vivo activation of a prodrug in an animal using an activator-targeting moiety conjugate to localize an activator at a predetermined site of use and a prodrug compound that is converted to an active drug in the presence of the activator. In the preferred embodiment, the targeting moiety, the activator, and the prodrug demonstrate little or no immunogenecity in the animal being treated. The targeting moiety is relatively specific for binding to the target tissue than to non-target tissue. The activator is not found or present in only small amounts in circulation or in non-target tissue, does not have a substrate for its activity in circulation or in non-target tissue, can be linked to the targeting moiety, and is capable of converting the prodrug to an active drug. The prodrug is selected for its ability to exert a cytotoxic activity on the target tissue after conversion by the activator.
